That's what I like about global warming - you can blame anything you want to
on it! Ya gotta love that!!


I blame global warming on Al Gore. If he quite blowing hot air, I
suspect the earth would cool one degree overnight. And if Hilary shut
her trap, we'd gain two degrees!

No one is flying. No one is driving. Most areas have no power. (We
still do, thankfully!)

Crazy.... And they're talking about 6 - 10 inches of snow tomorrow!


Sorry to heretywr.....whoops! Sory about that! Just spilled some of my
suntan oil on the keyboard! Doh! ;-)
Seriously though, got baked red raw all over my back building a
trampoline for the kids yesterday!

Back to the original topic, we just had some "thunder snow" here in
Madison. Thunder and lightning during a snowstorm. I've only heard/
seen it a few times.
We got something like 8 inches of snow last night, another 12-14
tonight.
the plane is safely tucked away in the hanger.

What, he invented frogs falling from the sky?

Only if he collaborated with France on a French paratroop invasion. ;)

Rereading your post, I notice you failed to include an invite. That's just
not right!

I do feel sorry for you. WX here in South Arkansas for Sunday is
supposed to be PC and 63 degrees.

Yes, global warm and weather/climate changes.
Mankind is alive, ergo, "we did it."

But I want Al Gore et al to explain why Mars is warmers,
Jupiter has a new spot, and even Pluto is getting warmer.
